Sad to report that one of our best parents and supporters, Brett Green, died in an accidental ATV accident on July 24.  Brett was a great supporter of the Metro program and especially his two sons, Shaun and Corbin.  All of the members of the teams they played on had a fondness for Brett.

It was always enjoyable to watch the family reunion at the Spiece tourney when Brett would bring his father over from Chicago to watch Shaun and Corb. 

We will miss you Brett!    Thanks for all the support of all the kids and the Metro program.
